PROFIT IN POULTRY.
Attention and Care Necessary TO succesi
In the Chicken business.

Attention and Care Necessary to Success
In tho Chicken business.
1t Is no uncommon thing to hear the
romark: There's no profit in poul-
try" but that should be taken with
great allowance. The various condi-
tions that assist in any such conclu-
sion may be such as would be very
likely to cause failure in any other
branch of farming operations.
In the first place in order to secure
success in poultry raising, there must
bo the same degree of attention and
care that would bc given to stock-rais-
ing or the growing Of crops, with this
very distinct and important difference.
that the best attention be paid
at the season of tho year when
it can best bo done, and when
such attention secures tho bcst results.
Poultry should be provided with
warm house that has an exposure to
the sun during the day, SO that on cold
days they may enjoy tho luxury OF its
rays. 1t should have a dry floor. over
which, and especially under the
perches, should be spread dry sand or
saw-dust, in which they can scratch
and so get exercise. Exercise is very
essential to health, and to the produc-
ton of eggs. and SO some scatter
leaves so that hens are compelled to
scratch for their food. In the winter,
when hens are confined almost wholly
to the house. the food should possess
as great variety as is possible, as this
tends to the best production OF eggs.
1t is an indsputable assertion thatif
there is a profit coming from the care
of hens It must be largely made up In
winter, and hence II the feed is given
in variety, chopped apples, cabbage.
turnips. etc, with scraps Of meat and
grains of various kinds supplemented
with skinned milk warmed for their
use and broken shells to assist diges-
ton and form the shells of the eggs,
satisfactory results will follow
An occasional feed of scalded meat
salted little, with a good sprinkling
Of pepper or mustard, will produce
good results. Or let corn be set over
the fire to boil awhile in water in viii CHI
pepper pod has been placed and the
effect will be felt in egg production. -

WORTH CONSIDERING.

Senalbie Suggestions for the Authorities
OF vIllaRsa aud Summer Resorts.
~ wish there was q committee on
names appointed for every town." said
a young lady reoently-''a committee
whose duty 1t should be to see that not
only streets, but all the hills and ponds
and roads Of the vicinity, had suitable
names given to them, or old ones pre-
served. Then there would be fewer
that were either very ugly or absurdly
romantic, and. above all. there would
not be such constant repetition"
She then proceeded to argue In favor
Of the establishment Of this novel COM
mittee. It was positively exasperating,
she declared, to 60 into the country,
summer after summer, and indin every
place she visited the same regulation
list of names! She did not believe she
had ever stayed in village that had
not its Sunset Hill Usually there was
Willow Brook besides. and Mirror
Lake, and sho considered herself fortu-
nate II she did not have to be shown q
Rainbow Fall and Crystal Spring,
and, perhaps, Smugglers Cave.
As for the Lovers Lane, Lovers Dell
and Lovers Leap, she was so tired OF
them that it would really seem pleas
ant variety to take an evening stroll
along Higginbotham road, to see the
Red Cows Jump by moonlight!
Then there was the DEVILS Den; but
why Pulpit. Basin, Bridge, Bowling
alley and Punch-bowl. all with .tbo
same unpleasing prefix AT least, "
ever, these places were named { er
somebody that the people beliey in;
and when 1t wasn't DEVILS Denilt was
sure to be Erin Grotto, which was a
great deal sillier. Who ever heard OF
even a young and imaginative Ameri-
can that believed in clvesp And why
should a dark, damp. dirty cave be
called a grotto--a name which suggests
Capri. and the magic of azure air and
glittering wallP
The Young lady's idea is hardly
likely to be realized; but the matter Of
names is worth considering, and II
would be well II tho authorities OF ouI
expanding villages and summer resorts,
that seem TO spring up in night, would
avoid affecting the Landscape with any
more devils. smugglers, elvos and
fairies Youtfs Companion.

LAND FOR NEVADA

The Virginia Report has the fol-
lowing:
We not long since had the pleas
ure to overhear Senator Jones in
conversation with other gentlemen
on the cars make certain state
ments which if carried out would
be Of great advantage to Nevada.
Il am going to introduce a BILL
said the Senator, donating to the
State of Nevada by the United
States all Of its lands. My object
is to found an irrigation fund.
That should have been done long
since. But very little has ever
been done to help Nevada" etc.
We delighted to overhear the
Senator speak in this strain for
some length of time and that he in
tends to bestir himself for our good.
The plan is very feasible one,
anG it would not take long to raise
fund that would enable us to test
the irrigation question to the best
advantage. Wherever water was
struck by artesian wells or damned
in canyons land would be made
saleable, and would be taken up
around all available points.
The Senator made another strong
point In favor of the Government
donating to Nevada all of its lands,
and that was that the State Govern
ment could better pass laws that
would stop men from buying and
taking up long narrow strips of
land on streams of water, aud thus
being enable to command and vir-
tually own and receive the benefit
of thousand upon thousands of
broad acres without paying a cent
of taxes upon them. The United
States cannot sell much land after
the grabber has located all the
cources, and springs, but it just
holds it for him and exempts him
from taxation.
Possibly there are but few things
that so we'll show the utter inca
pacity of the average legislative ma
terial that has been rantine in the
halls of State and nation, as the
fact that few men have been en-
ahled by the purchase of compare
lively small tracts of land to 40
sorb the living resources of thous-
ands of men. We can well im
agiEe the feelings of man of the
understanding power of Senator
Jones when looking upon this sub
ject, but cannot understand how he |
can enjoy the honors this people |
have showered upon hm IN con
temptation Of the meaere returns |
he has made to them-in lnoking
over the disastrous results of his |
omission. This docs not apply to
Senator Jones only, but to all men
who with power in their hands t.
remedy gigantic evils, and brain
enough in their heads to know
their existence. oallied precious
years in indolent procrastination.
The result of just such dalliance
is the birth Of isms of all kinds. In
the legislative halls Of State and ma
ton you will find the germs of
social disease batchinC in a thou
sand forms. There is the place to
turn your attention for a cure.
